CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the study
Employees are the human resources that constitute the workforce in an organization. They put in some efforts in implementing the organization objectives. Therefore, they need to be appropriately catered for. Personnel Management has generally been considered in traditional terms, a staff functions and like all the other management functions, staffing is a flow of activities which results in the continuous filling of the various positions of all levels in the organization. These activities include work analysis and design, recruitment and selection, training and development, appraisal, compensation (Wages and Salaries), welfare services, safety and industrial relations. It is also the effective utiliation of the whole labour force in the organisation managerial and non-managerial. The manager can achieve little on his own. He is dependent on the non-managerial workers. It is used to have supportive role. This means that he uses his own capabilities and those of subordinates too, according to Follet, “getting things done through other people” (Follaro, 1975), and to achieve the set objectives which is the foundation of any organization. Unless objectives are achieved regularly, the organization ceases to exist. The success of any organization depends upon a large extent in the caliber of the workers who work for it having the right person in the right place at the right time, discipline any misconduct of the employees, compensating them in form of wages and salaries, promoting, motivating to bring efficient product for great profitability, which is the main objective of any organization. The origin of personnel management dated back to the time of industrial revolutions in Britain. At the time there were poor working conditions. People had to work for long hours (between 14. 16 hours) another important factor was that woman above 50 years and children under 10years were hade to work. This was dated back to the 19th century. On this account, and being conscious of their oppression as a class, workers foresaw the inevitability of organised labour movement or trade unions as a practical solution to fight against hardship, vision of a new social order to improve their well being. This led to the emergence of welfare workers’ who went from industry to industry in order to forge workers and trade unions brotherhood in order to ameliorate their predicament the movement gained ground and led to the formation of welfare workers Association in 1913, this movement was however disrupted by the fist world war about government intervened and this brought about improvement in the working condition of the workers.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The increase in the number of employees traceable to industrial revolution era and complexity in management constitute major problem in every business organization.
